Topic: [ANN] Grin | PoW Mining | Electronic transactions for all. Community driven. - page 66. (Read 73804 times)

This project seems to be shilled far too much in my opinion. Normally I'm giving out the benefit of doubt to every project and see how it proceeds but it's really difficult to project this onto Grin. The inflation issue is a really huge thing if you compare it to other crypto solutions. A main part of Bitcoin was limited supply - which Grin is the exactly opposite.
Additionally, I didn't see such a weak ANN presentation. The design standards have fairly improved the last years. Even if OP has no high rank (and is obviously not getting into a better one soon) the ANN in the most important crypto forum could be designed much better.
And finally: I don't know why this forum supports altcoins while having the option of getting involved in much better altcoins that are actually approved.

I heard about Grin and MimbleWimble recently, i think it's something different from what we used to know about elements in a blockchain like addresses and recorded transactions. How to try with transactions in the Grinnet and did the mainnet lunched as sheduled to the 15 January?

Is that what brought you back to the forum just now, or is it coincidence? And did you go on hiatus because of the get-rich-quickism?

It is v interesting, but from an investment pov it might be better to bitcoin-cost-average into it slowly rather than all at once.

Nothing like that yet. Chains fork and resolve all the time

This project sounds interesting. Thinking of investing few BTC into this.

Only thing is I saw this on explorer:
(Fork detected! We've detected two competing chains, forked at Block 10148. Stay wary!)

Does this mean a Grin Gold is coming?  or anything of that nature?

I don't think they want people to speculate and hoard this currency. I think they want to avoid the criticisms of bitcoin being all held in massive amounts by early adopters. They want it to be for spending and pricing, for real world use. It probably will be more stable than other cryptos in a few years. Perhaps just gradually decreasing in value a little bit every year for the foreseeable future.

As for it being too hard to use, well yes it certainly is right now, but I mean



Of course it's going to be rough. There is no reason why it can't progress in an ever more user friendly direction from here moving forward. It could be pretty easy. Imagine if grin in the future had a built in DHT. There would be no need to configure anything, as long as your wallet was running it could receive. And a company that owed you payment could ping you every few minutes for as long as it took at trivial cost. And the ability to send funds through email could actually be really convenient when it's not so rough around the edges. I'm thinking drag and drop from email or other source into the wallet and done.

We will see. I'm here because this is something real. It's not a get rich quick hype coin. It's real, new, innovative technology. We only see that every few years in this space if we are lucky. I will always come back to be a part of it every time it turns up. And I expect I will see a lot of the cool familiar faces here or elsewhere when I do, time and time again.

I have successfully withdrawn from grinmint using e-mail. Not gonna try the http option as it sounds woefully unsafe. Perhaps your e-mail provider doesn't understand the "+" in the address?


In a cash transaction you also don't particularly care about person's identity or anything like that. You just hand them cash and they take it.

I think eventually there will be tools built to overcome some of the inconvenience, with varying degrees of sacrifice needed in terms of privacy etc.

I'm struggling to understand the compatibility of the MimbleWimble backbone + unlimited supply:

For a potential "everyday use" cryptocurrency that dominates the global economy, I think some rate of inflation/emission is 100% necessary.

But I don't think Grin is trying to be that with the way everything else is situated. The elimination of denominations and addresses makes this currency fundamentally difficult to interact with. I also think an inherently private coin would be incompatible with the role of worldwide day-to-day use.

I don't see any other situation for Grin or any crypto where unlimited supply is a good thing to have. What's the justification?

I came late. What's bob on about?

Thanks, Yeah I did with the +random value.  Tried twice and both times didn't receive the email. I didn't see a way to open a support ticket so I emailed [email protected]. Have you tried both email and http methods?

Yep no withdraw button for me either

Grin does not have "addresses." Did you open the account with the +random value added to the e-mail? You may have to open a support ticket with the pool if you are not getting the e-mail with the tx file.

Hey guys
Mining on grinmint - is it possible to payout to a grinbox address?  Right now only seeing http and email (which for some reason I'm not receiving).  Thanks

2 1080 Ti and 4 1070 with 125 on the core, 300 on memory (except one bad 1070) and 200W/120W for 1080 Ti/1070, in case it helps anyone.

Thanks, I haven't tried cancellations yet, will do that before engaging with strangers.


v13 much improved on a regular 1080 (non Ti) as well. Thanks for the heads up.

It should be possible if you publish the tx data, but currently there seems to be no functionality for this. This was one of my complaints in my forum-grin-payments thread.

For now:
 - If someone might lie about receiving grin from you, don't trade with them.
 - If you receive a transaction, consider it as absolutely unreliable until it's confirmed.
 - If you send a transaction but the process is interrupted before you finalize it, you need to do grin wallet cancel -t TXID and then (due to a bug which will probably eventually be fixed) grin wallet check

I have moved some coins to my wallet and between two of my wallets, been experimenting for a bit. It's offline now though. I'm gonna rebuild my node later today and once I restore the wallet backup we can try this if you're still interested.

Indeed, just not so many of those lovely hats....

This project may have good intentions but anyone buying this coin in the next few years is retarded because of this massive inflation rate.  This isn't something you buy to get rich, only support it if you believe in the cause.

You'd probably have enough Doge to buy a bitcoin!
Certainly more than the market cap of those masternode shitcoins after a year.

This guy is a retard wanna be scammer Dev.
Just drop him on ignore and save your self the hassle later.

Go back to your masternode scams.
